Hide Nothing From The Masses: An Insider Perspective in the Black Lives Matter Global Network Sham

Questions about finances at the Black Lives Matter Global Foundation made headlines, but political impropriety is at the heart of the matter. Revolutionary politics would proscribe self-dealing and co-optation.

On January 31, 2022, New York magazine published an article by Sean Campbell, “The BLM Mystery: Where did the money go?” A core demand of the article is one that many have made for many years: Show me the money! People have questions. I have a lot of answers. I am a former, and still supportive organizer in a legacy chapter (my own term) of Black Lives Matter - BLM Philly.

{The “leaders” misled the organizers, asserting they were seeking to accomplish the same goals, insinuating that they were simply failing. Organizers are typically overwhelmed, and often take on responsibilities beyond their capacity. It’s the nature of the work. So the community accepted and acted in faith that the problem was capacity and maybe a bit of ego, yet nothing nefarious. That was our mistake.}

{I am glad people are asking questions about the money. However, the money, though the most sensational part, is actually the least important in my opinion. Money is important for resourcing the work of the movement, of the organizers and of communities, and to support the families of victims of police murder, and of state violence in it’s many forms. However, more significant than the potential use of funds held in an organization is the potential influence of those who provide those funds. And more important than that, is the process of propaganda.}

These are the emphasis I've been putting on this movement for a while. Corporate companies, NGO and think tank groups, who are aligned with the same political party they in turn align with. In this case the democratic party. In which history provides evidence their overall nature is just as racist as the republicans.

{Throughout the nearly ten years that BLM existed, organizers never were informed of the finances, including where finances came from. We were undermined in our efforts to establish processes - we never even had a solidly established decision making process or organizational structure in spite of many proposals and processes led by hired facilitators.}

I would argue that there's reason here to investigate whether the BLM movement was developed within deceptive purposes from the beginning to confront the growing incidents taking place in society. A foresight to enable control of growing tensions corralling them into a false diminished cause.

{In the midst of this, we learned that Patrisse had stopped the process, reasserted control of the finances and started creating other organizations (first BLM Grassroots then BLM PAC). She did this in collaboration with Melina Abdullah from LA, Dawn Modkins from Long Beach, Jordin Giger from South Bend, Angela Austin-Waters from Michigan, and Karlene Griffiths Sekou from Boston, which finalized the split in the Boston chapter as it happened also without the knowledge of half the chapter, during a restorative justice process.

Understand that this is theft - and not only of money. They stole our voice, our insights, our contributions, and our labor. And more significant than the thievery is how dangerous their actions are. These individuals lack political clarity or accountability. This is what, from the beginning, empowered a few organizers to compromise the entire movement by making BLM a tool of counterinsurgency for the U.S. government.}

{When we examine the actions of the so-called “founders” of the “BLM Movement” we must also identify the ways those actions were supported and elevated by media and social media applications (tools of the government).

There is a common theme in the narrative of organizers in cities across the country and in other countries: the streets were hot, the “founders” showed up and redirected attention from the organizers on the ground, they left and took the visibility with them, the streets cooled down. Subversion. Counterinsurgency. They practiced it at the local level repeatedly and had perfected it by the time the state murdered our siblings George, Breonna, and Ahmaud. They took over every moment of deep, passionate, fearless, heartfelt radicalization and used it to transform the primary, mainstream “liberation” narrative into one that is focused on registering voters and winning seats for the democratic party. Our radical, abolitionist, revolutionary response to them killing our family in the streets on behalf of the state is to vote. It’s Black Votes that now Matter to Black Lives Matter. Except, only, actually, to a small few. Minority rule. Very radical.}

Occupy in Charleston always rejected direct action for wide spread benefit INSTEAD opted to gliiter bomb Michelle Bachman and other rethuglicans althewhile refusing coalitions with CCI for example on utility rates or UNneeded nukes....BLM like ACORN was infiltrated and maginalized if not obliterated

I saw the Dem Party doing the same thing to co-opt the Occupy Movement a decade ago, until it got to be too big a threat and Obama ordered it crushed....
